A few days ago I did a big shopping trip and bought four varieties of apples.  There were about eight kinds at the store, and I hadn’t seen most of them.  So I decided to buy several kinds and see what the difference in taste between thered was.

But two of the kinds resembled one another and got put into the same box once we were home, so I have no way to know what those are like compared to one another.  The least expensive, and least attractive, apple, was called Honey Crisps.  I bought a bushel of those, and now that we’ve had them, I’m sorry I didn’t buy more!  These apples are incredibly good – they’re sweet, crunchy, and taste really good dehydrated as well.  The other varieties that I remember the names of that I bought are Empire and Jonathan, both of which are good but nowhere near as good as these. 

We all have been really enjoying these and have only a handful of them left – that means a bushel of Honey Crisps have been eaten in four days, and they haven’t even been our only fruits!  The kids have been having plums and bananas, but these are definitely the favorite for now.  If you can pick some up at your local stores, I really recommend trying them!
